top of the hill

ok, another cafe and trying to remember what happened three days ago…..well this spot was our most adventurous thus far…we took some gravel road up the mountain and came out in this clearing that over looked the valley bewlow, it was sunset and the view was, well adjectives are becoming so boring …...soon ićll get pictures on the site, which come to think of it might become boring as well because we are taking pecture of all our camping spots, to funny…..so in the morning we got a late start, the previous day had drain us….shopping in a city, dealing with traffic, not getting what we were looking for…..so we got packed up and hit the road, literally, i mean fuck….i had riden about 100feet and came to the bank down to the road…i was a little slow on my approach and the front wheel hit the ditch and i stopped, when i hit the gas my rear tire spun and since i couldn t reach the ground i lost it, falling over and rolling in a summer sault, it was a jolting way to get the blood flowing…..i wanted a coffee bad, so no damage, but we had to drag the rear of the bike off the bank in order to get it up right!!!!! now you might think that i’m learning something at this point,and certqainly you would be right, however i’m a slow learner, we hit the road again, yes literally…..another 100 feet along this mountain trail we come to some water…..not a puddle, several, water filled ruts, now i had sucessfully managed water befaore and i was feeling pretty good,even though i had just pick my bike up off the dirt 1 minuter before, so my thinking was to avoid the water and stay high on the top of the rut, the bike and mud thought differently, before i knew what was happening i’m kissing the good earth again….now i’ve gotten into the habit of fumping up and turning off the engine immediately, not a difficult thing to do, this time however, as i turned and steped toward the bike i slid into the puddle that my bike is lying in, holy shit, the water was so deep it went right over the top of my boot and filled it…..oh kay, i’m awake now!!!! getting the bike upright this time was a bit more challenging and then we had to actually get it out of this mess! Thank god for joscha! he managed toget the bike thru the resst of the way and back again. we thought going back the way came and laying in the sun to dry out, was best…found out that my boxes are not water tight, the side that was laying in the water was half full with water, luckily all our things are in ziplock bags!!!!!!
so after drying out, we got going and had a great day of riding, the hills are getting bigger and the roads more intense, we crossed into croatia today
